摘要:
Structure-activity relationships of 6-(benzoylamino)benzoxaborole analogs were investigated for the inhibition of TNF-alpha, IL-1 beta, and IL-6 from lipopolysaccharide stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Compound 1q showed potent activity against all three cytokines with IC50 values between 0.19 and 0.50 mu M, inhibited LPS-induced TNF-alpha and IL-6 elevation in mice and improved collagen-induced arthritis in mice. Compound 1q (AN4161) is considered to be a promising lead for novel anti-inflammatory agent with an excellent pharmacokinetic profile. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
